Innovating
I adapt behaviors and create new strategies for unique student needs and situations.
A teacher uses various strategies to successfully organize students to interact in group activities. When some students still seem to be having difficulty with the content, she restructures the activity so that they interact productively with other students who can provide them with helpful new perspectives on the material.

Applying
I organize students to interact in a thoughtful way that facilitates collaboration, and I monitor the extent to which students collaborate.
A teacher groups students with care and provides detailed guidance for group activities. He monitors and provides aid to groups as well as individual students during the activities and is able to see students growing in their understanding of the content.
